About this ebook

The player has met his match…

Hunt Cade likes women. All women.

Life is good as long as he's got his boat, the steady line of beautiful women entering his Club Tahoe resort, and cold beer nights with his brothers.

Until a new kid enters the Club Tahoe children's program and reminds Hunt what it was like to grow up without a father. Not to mention, the effect the kid’s mother Abby has on him.

The last time Hunt got involved with someone he shouldn’t have, it nearly ruined his relationship with his brothers, the only family he has left. 

Hunt should stay away from Abby…but he was never good at denying himself.

EXCERPT

He raised an eyebrow. “There’s an aftermath to sex?”

“Yes. We might want to do it again.”

His gaze was on her chest and moving lower. “I’m willing to take a chance if you are.”

Ratings and reviews

I absolutely loved this beautiful romance! Hunt is the consummate player, a man who loves all women and refuses to commit to just one. Until he meets Abby, a young mother who is the only woman not falling at his feet. And the only woman who needs him for much more than his personal attention skills. Abby is doing the best she can to take care of herself and her young son after his father, her boyfriend, died and left her with nothing but his selfish parents, who are anxious to take the boy off her hands. Hunt is the father-figure her son, Noah, never had, and these two build quite a strong bond as they spend their days together at Club Kids, the childcare program run by Hunt at his family's Club Tahoe resort. When Hunt realizes what Abby is up against, he offers to help her fight Noah's grandparents, even though everyone - including Hunt - doubts his ability to follow through and be the man Abby and Noah need him to be. There's so much emotional depth to this story, and it's exquisitely drawn out as both Abby and Hunt figure out how to define their relationship and how to make it work. I read this in one sitting, ignoring everything else I was supposed to be doing, as I just couldn't put it down until I got to the very satisfying HEA. I've read all the earlier books in this series, and this one is the perfect conclusion for the entire Cade family. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

I enjoyed this one a lot. Though Hunt gives off a playboy vibe and carefree attitude there is more to him then meets the eye. Abby and Noah bring out a whole new side to him. Hunt is so good with the kids that come to the Club Tahoe's children program. My heart goes out to Abby because her story is one that hits you in the heart. Plus life is dealing her blow after blow. She needs a turn in luck. There were parts that made me laugh and then parts that warmed my heart. One of those was the end. It ended so perfectly I couldn't have asked for anything better. There were some parts that made me gasp with some unexpected twists. This a book that easily hooks you and you look up to see time has flown while enjoying this one.
